Supplementing Libertarian for the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby at the Curragh is a "strong possibility" according to connections following his superb run in defeat at Epsom on Saturday.
The son of New Approach did not make his racecourse debut until striking at Pontefract in early April, but has come a long way in a short space of time.
After a fair run at Sandown, the three-year-old ran out a shock winner of the Dante Stakes at York, but proved that to be no fluke when beating all bar Ruler Of The World in the Investec Derby.
Karl Burke, assistant to his trainer-wife Elaine, is keen on another crack at the winner in Ireland on June 29.
